Tower of Babel
They say
Four thousand years before today
When supposedly they tried to make tower of clay
Tower that their desire to reach heaven would convey
Tower of Babel was supposed to be two miles high
Reaching far into the sky
But no matter how high
At the door to the heaven its top would not lay
Are there beings in outer space?
Or is earth only living place
In any way our earth is a place
That to exist requires entire space
Earth is forty thousand kilometers long
But to sing earths entire song
Not just creatures it has but solar system to which it does belong
Would take unbelievable tongue
And everything had to affect everything else
For the conditions for existence of life to suffice
As the life would surface
There had to be almost perfect balance
For it to bloom
Like child from the womb
And to grow it required room
But to begin lots more room
What is on the other side?
Maybe nothing but that would be sad sight
And that is why building tower of Babel they tried
And although unsuccessful their bravery cannot be denied
Infinity
Different then number divided by zero would be
Similarly
Heaven is not just immortality
On outer reaches of our solar system magnetic bubbles appear
And about solar wind protecting us form gamma rays you also hear
On the outer part of solar system there are comets forming a sphere
But it took entire universe long time for life to appear
I prefer forest over sandy dune
Because there is more life in the forest than upon the dune
To death we refer as dark side of the moon
But I would like while being alive to see metaphoric light on the dark side of that moon
